Data and strategies for disability equity and inclusion

The Americans with Disabilities Act aims to ensure rights and opportunities for people with disabilities, including equitable access to transportation, jobs, and health care. Even so, there are still policies and harmful stereotypes that prevent people with disabilities from thriving. In this webinar, we will discuss ways to center those with disabilities. Dr. Bonnielin Swenor, the director of the Johns Hopkins Disability Health Research Center, will share data dashboards created to support evidence-based policies. And Kimberly Tissot, president and chief executive officer of Able SC, will share strategies to engage the disability community in all aspects of civic life. Able SC is a federally recognized disability-led organization committed to systems changes that result in access, equity and inclusion.

Mark your calendars: Immediately following the webinar at 3 p.m. CT/4 p.m. ET, County Health Rankings & Roadmaps will host a one-hour discussion. Join us in an engaging dialogue with peers across the country and share your experiences working toward equity.
